There is no such thing. "Visual Studio for Mac" is a re-spin of MonoDevelop, and doesn't compare to the actual VS in any way, shape or form.

- PreInternet01 3y agoThank you so much, as you can see, I truly didn't know that. Maybe tuning out Microsoft messaging to the max wasn't the best decision after all...
- pjmlp 3y agoActually it started like that, but eventually they started sharing code with VS, not that it matters any longer, as VS4Mac has been killed.
